Pros & Cons
Pros
Head tracking works solidly now with noticeable reduction of hangups/freezing of in-game tracking. Microphone works surprisingly decent. Works perfectly for a picroft voice assisant project on raspberry pi.
Clear picture, even in dim lighting. Only downside is the base is too light for the camera to stay focused on one position.

Highlights
Quality
Works out of the box, decent picture quality, not as good as the rpi camera module, but a little quicker to install.

Price
This arrived so quickly, and for a good price.
This is the best you can ever find definitely with this price you should totally buy this!
Shipping
At under $5 plus shipping, this works great once i installed the free driver.
Competitiveness
I just set this up on a raspberry pi 3 model b, running the latest raspian release (stretch).

The camera is also decent and passable but in 2018 if youre shopping for a webcam the 480p resolution probably wont cut it
